In this episode, we step into the world of Karen Long & Gillian Brown
Both Karen & Gillian are Alcohol-Free mums and are on a mission to debunk the mummy wine culture.
This current culture is imposed upon us by society and encourages mums to use Alcohol to de-stress from their kids, to unwind with wine after a long day and to make us believe that it's okay to do that. Well, Karen and Gillian are saying it's not ok and why should it be? They have called time on the marketing and societal pressures that encourage this behaviour which can lead to significant lifestyle issues and further problems associated with Alcohol.
Through changing their own relationship with Alcohol on the journey of motherhood, Karen and Gill and now coaching other mums that they can too, change their relationship with Alcohol and lead a better life by being the best mums they can be.
We discuss the 'Why's of debunking the wine culture, society's pressures on mums to drink and all the benefits of being an Alcohol-Free mum.

Jill's 'Mess to Success' story is very raw but highly inspirational. From an early age, Jill battled with issues of insecurities, low self-esteem and not fitting in.

As a result, Jill's life hit a real low point where she became addicted to food, withdrawing from her studies and failing to graduate.
Jill moved to France where she started to suppress her feelings through alcohol and excessive lifestyle and after many years of soul searching Jill began to heal herself and found a purpose for helping others.
